]]> Lighthouses hold a special quality, as the last human-made frontier before the wild raging seas. They can feel like lost, lonely places, or some see them as symbols of hope and light. However you feel about them, you must agree that lighthouses can be amazing places to visit – not only can you marvel at the human ingenuity, but the natural landscapes around these buildings are often stunning. Here are three of the best to visit across Europe.

Flamborough Head, UK

This lighthouse on the Yorkshire coast is a classic example of a white-washed lighthouse on a cliff edge. Set further back from the sea is a much older example, which would have held a beacon of fire to warn passing ships of the rocky coastline. Once you’ve enjoyed the lighthouses, head closer to the cliff edges where you’ll see a famous seabird colony. Watching the guillemots and gannets dive into the water is a spectacular sight, and one you won’t forget in a hurry.

Cabo de Rosa, Portugal

Located at the most western edge of Portugal, this stunning lighthouse dates from the mid-1800s. Perched on cliffs several hundred meters above the roaring Atlantic, this is a place where you can really feel the force of the ocean.

Punta Carena, Capri, Italy

The second-highest lighthouse in Italy is located on the stunning Isle of Capri. This structure towers over the waves and still plays an important role in keeping passing ships safe. With its panoramic views out to sea and its interesting structure, the lighthouse is one of the most popular photo spots on the island.

That’s certainly the case with some of Sydney’s most beautiful lighthouses, and these three really stood the test of time.

Hornby Lighthouse

Located on the tip of South Head, this red-and-white striped structure is one of the city’s most beloved heritage-listed lighthouses. It’s surrounded by many scenic spots that make it worth the trip, including the Gap Lookout and Lady Bay Beach.

Macquarie Lighthouse

On your way to Hornby Lighthouse, make sure to stop at this lovely spot, located just three kilometers away. This clean, white sandstone tower is the first and the longest surviving lighthouse in Australia, and it was first lit in 1883.

Barrenjoey Lighthouse

Even if you’re not a fan of lighthouse architecture, this tower is worth the visit for the surrounding nature alone. Located about an hour from central Sydney, it offers stellar views of the Hawkesbury River and Broken Bay that you can’t find anywhere else but here.

]]> Every traveler dreams of extremes: the tallest mountains; the biggest cities; the longest rivers. If you want to visit the southernmost city in the world, it is surprisingly easy to get to and has plenty of things to do as well.

What Ushuaia, Argentina is most famous for is being the jumping-off point of tours to Antarctica. There are plenty of Antarctica trips here, from 5-star cruises to cheaper options, but if this expensive trip isn’t in your budget then soak in the excitement of the explorers coming and going from the docks and shops.

The experience isn’t complete without seeing the Les Eclaireurs Lighthouse in the Beagle Channel. The lighthouse is an icon of the southernmost tip and comes with incredible views and wildlife, especially birds.

Lastly, the weather in Ushuaia creates unique nature in and around the city. It never gets above 62° Fahrenheit, and with lots of rain, you can find lush National Parks and unique views of the bay. Martial Glacier and Tierra Del Feugo National Park are two of the most common nature outings, but mountain biking, hiking, and skiing in the winter are all available as well.
